Dynamic Karate (Bushido--The Way of the Warrior) Review

Special Price Here
In my review of Nishiyama's book (Karate: the art of empty hand fighting) I had mentioned that it was the first book I recommended to my students. However, I also strongly recommended this book (Dynamic Karate by the late M. Nakayama)to even my advanced students because it covers all the basic techniques in a comprehensive and detailed way. Master Nakayama shows and explains how to use the hips in all the techniques. As anyone knows who practices Shotokan Karate, the mastery of the basics is stressed in every dojo class. This fantastic book explains in detail how to properly perform every basic karate technique for best results. This book, along with Nishiyama's book, should be in the personal library of anyone who considers themselves students of Shotokan Karate. Rating: 5 Stars. Joseph J. Truncale (Author: Shotokan Karate Self-defense Techniques: Combat Karate for the streets, Martial Art Myths, Season of the Warrior: a poetic tribute to warriors, Never Tust a Politician, Monadnock Defensive Tactics System, Use of the Monadnock Straight Baton, PR-24 Police Baton Advanced Techniques).
Dynamic Karate (Bushido--The Way of the Warrior) Overview
Most books on karate usually do not provide complete, detailed instructions and illustrations--the fundamentals plus the fine points--that readers hope for. This book fills the gaps left by others.
The late Master Masatoshi Nakayama, chief instructor of the Japan Karate Association, left this book as a testament. It reveals his great experience as a karate competitor and teacher, describing and illustrating in detail all the correct movements involved in the particular block, punch, or kick you want to perfect, as well as instructions--on combining blocking techniques with decisive counterattacks. Also included is a glossary of all Japanese karate terms and a guide to their pronunciation.
Because of the lightning speed of karate techniques, normal camera work often fails to record the action accurately. For this reason, many of the photo sequences found in Dynamic Karate were taken using a stroboscope with a flash time of 1/10,000 of a second, enabling you to follow each movement as it is actually performed.
